She is also the author of Myths & Millennials, with 35,000 readers worldwide. Her mission is to save women’s health globally and stop maternal deaths.Worst investment everPadmini believed that people are born and raised to be prosperous and financially stable. So she was in that manual mode while growing up. Padmini studied hard, and when she came out of university and started working, she emersed herself in work. All Padmini thought about was working hard to go up the corporate ladder and earn more. Padmini’s focus was only on how to be successful. Her version of success was making money, being the best employee, and getting promotions every year.Padmini worked non-stop. She even cut short her maternity leave to get back to her career journey. She felt this was what it took to get to the right level of success. One day she forgot to feed her daughter. She had late-night calls with clients and was so engrossed in the meetings that her daughter fell asleep without eating. It wasn’t until the following day, when Padmini’s daughter told her that she’d forgotten to feed her, that she realized she had been investing all her energy and focus into her career while missing out on the most important things in her life.Lessons learnedNothing or nobody is as important as you are. So invest a lot in yourself.Doing something that you’re passionate about instead of working hard to impress your boss or the people around you is the only way to succeed in life. You can be on your own, make the same money, bring the same value, be happy about it, and have a much more balanced life.Andrew’s takeawaysIf we don’t have health, we have nothing.
